Why does nobody talk about password managers getting hacked?
Had a conversation with my neighbor last weekend, he's a retired IT guy from the school district. He told me he still uses the same password for everything because he read about a password manager getting breached back in 2022. I argued with him for a bit, but then I started thinking about it. If one of those services gets cracked, suddenly every account you own is exposed. I know the convenience is huge, but how do you folks deal with that single point of failure risk?

Dropped my phone in a puddle last week and now half my apps won't open.

@nancy475 would say that's better than losing the whole phone like I did.

My aunt used that same password since 1999 and her email got drained last spring.
